Description

I recently upgraded from 1.8 to 1.81 and the author and citations are not now showing in the main quotes nodes. They still show in the blocks, so I know they are still in the db but they used to show up in both views. Now I just get the content of the quote, unless it is displaying as a block.

(I also seem to remember (?) that there was a citation tab, along with authors and bios but I don't have this now)

thanks for any help.

Please tell me what settings you are using. I do not see this problem.

Thanks. my settings are as follows:

'make author a link' - ticked
'include author's bio' - don't display
10 quotes per page
'show links to user's quotes' and 'show the my quotes menu item' - both ticked
'add a recent quotes link' - ticked

I've attached a screenshot so you can see what I mean. All content displayed here is a quote ('nugget') Blue boxes down the left are quotes as blocks, and contain author and citation. Those displaying in the central panel (recent items) do not. If I click on one of the quotes, I don't get any more info than you can see here.

Hope that helps

I changed my settings to match yours and produced the attached screen shot.

Are you using a custom theme template?

yes (I think so) I use the Zen theme, but I have modified it. It worked fine until I upgraded to this version of quotes. I've also tried switching the theme to Blue Marine and the author / citation still do not show up.

update: if I disable the nodeteaser module, the author and citations show up as they should do. This is not convenient for me since I wanted to be able to display different teasers on the front page, but at least it allows me to retrieve my quote information.

Do you know why there should be a clash between these two modules? (there was no clash until I updated both to the most recent versions)

I wasn't even aware of that module. It doesn't seem very well maintained and there are several serious issues in the issue queue. At the moment, I simply don't have the time to download and debug that module. Perhaps someone else might.

Has the maintainer of Nodeteaser fixed this yet?

Thanks. In fact I changed from Nodeteaser to Excerpt and all was fine... for a bit.

I now have a problem with content showing, but it is not just quotes so I suspect this is not something you can help with. Some quotes are showing, others are not. It appears to depend on the content. I have filed the issue here

Since this is not a Quotes problem, I am closing it.
